About
Origyn Foundation, based in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, is a decentralized certification infrastructure that enhances trust and authenticity of real-world assets across various industries through blockchain technology. Founded in 2020, Origyn Foundation specializes in providing a blockchain-based certification solution for asset verification. It was co-founded by Mike Schwartz and Vincent Perriard. The company has raised USD 20.
00 mn in funding from investors including Bill Ackman’s Table Management and Polychain Capital, with a current company valuation of USD 320. 00 mn. The most recent funding round occurred on November 23, 2021. Origyn offers a decentralized certification infrastructure designed to bring real-world assets on-chain, enhancing trust, provenance, and authenticity across industries.
The core product includes a secure three-step certification process that allows users to submit asset metadata to receive unique, tamper-proof digital certificates on the blockchain. This service is applicable in sectors such as art, gold, diamonds, and luxury goods, serving businesses and developers globally, particularly in Europe, North America, and Asia. Revenue generation for Origyn is facilitated through the utilization of its native utility token, OGY, which powers protocol fees, governance, and staking activities. Clients, including marketplaces and luxury brands, utilize the Origyn protocol to mint digital certificates, engaging in B2B transactions that ensure secure on-chain verification.
The revenue structure may involve subscription models for access to certification services and partnerships with organizations leveraging Origyn’s technology for certifying tokenized assets. Following the most recent funding round, Origyn Foundation plans to utilize the USD 20. 00 mn raised to further develop its native utility token functionality across its core verticals—art, collectibles, digital media, and luxury. The company aims to expand its service offerings while targeting new markets, particularly in Asia and North America, with initiatives expected to launch in the next 12-18 months.
